Somehow all the’ figures that ceme from China deal in too many ciphers.

ARRIVAL OF THE SUPER-SHIP The Graf Zeppelin reached the United States in safety. To do so it went 1,000 miles out of its way, Rut that didn’t matter. It avoided storms because it was able to detect them through its radio equipment. Its commander knew as much about the ‘weather over a radius of 1,000 miles s the weather bureau. That spells for success. A dirigible able to remain in the air fong enough to cover 9,000 miles has some advantages besides those that result from having a gas bag with lifting power instead of airplanes forcing the engines to do the lifting as well as the drive for- ward. This huge cruising radius en- ables a dirigible to go from terminal like to terminal without the possibility of making a “forced landing.” which in the case of a disaster. No airplane has yet cr the Atlantic from west to vast in that fashion; the Bremen, it will be dirigible would spell ssed e membered, landed in Labrador, not in New York The Graf Zeppelin, like dirigibles before it, departed from its it fn- of other home town and landed wh tended to land on this side o the an.

Governor 8mith devoted an entire ' 2 and | that the world aerle%’ |evening to the promising the people that he would not disturb the present tariff but would rely upon a non-partisan {board and. its co-operation with Congress, and if there are to be any changes these would be in specific duties only, not a new tariff act. Mr. Hoover, in a sense “answering” the Democratic stand, says he would |not delegate authority over tariff {rates to “any commission, whether { non-partisan or bi-partisan. | A Tariff Commission, however, al- ready exists, and it has the power to “recommend” specific | duties under the flexible tariff pro- Ivisions of the law, and the Presi- dent has the power to adopt or ignore the recommendations. When the Tariff Commission was formed the ostensible object was to “take the changes in :tanrf out of politics.” It hasn't done |so in all respects, the claim being made by the Democrats—and re- peated by Governor Smith at | Louisville—that the Commission has ! | been “loaded” with the wrong kind | |of experts. On the question of forcign trade | Mr. Hoover made a rather involved | explanation. 111\1!\: would be destroyed if |we were denied sufficient imports,” lwere nis words. His thesis is that | high protection will not interfere | with the right kind of imports, such as tropical products, but will bene- fit by preventing imports of the | wrong kind, such as manufactured | products. Yet in almost the same | breath he admits that 30 per cent, or fiu 0,000,000 of such imports, |came in over the tariff wall, paying | duties of about $470,000,000 to the government. “The purchasing power for our goods was undiminighed by this amount,” he added. Now, let anybody with the roll that around in his mind. “No tariff act is perfect,” he ad- mitted. Yet the Fordney-McCumber was regarded as the quintessence of perfection in Massachusetts. There- fore, when it has failed to lift the textile industry from some explanation is due, including wage statistics. In the latter method Mr. Hoover was ably prepared. He showed how Yankee woolen and worsted weavers, and American cot- ton weavers, more American money—than foreign co-workers. An American cotton weaver, for instance, an average of 40 cents an hour— when he is working. (Ten hours a |day, 60 hours a week, would be an average of $24). Another statisti- cal reference showed that 600,000 | tamilies depend upon the cotton and wool manufacturing industries.

But according to Mr. Hoover, there has been and prosperity.” one only, Mr. Hoover, it must be confessed, had a hard field to cultivate when alluding to the textile industry in a part of the country where textile constitute 26 per cent of the indus- trial life—when it is 100 per cent in operation. The closed textile mills, or those working on part time, indicate that something is wrong and of entirely due to {the tariif. ‘The reason for this dire depressio | however: situation has I prevailed throughout the world and lis due largely to the same factors, stylé changes, coyrse it cannot be was easily forthcoming, The same production areas and decided in new changes in the |trends of consumption.” But if that {is s0, how is the American tariff go- ing to change this parlous world sit- | vation? - The main difference between the doctrine of Mr. it to be 1 function of Congress con- nd the [dent, Mr. Hoover says, “is the only clusively.

Unfortunately, exuber- im\ce in the physical presence of a candidate tor the presidency does necessarily mean that all who are displaying it intend to vote for the candidate. . . . The American peo- ;ple demand a certain amount of ballyhoo, or, as Gov. 8mith would {say, boloney, but they want some !solid meat as well. And this is ‘somelhm‘ which thus far the gover- nor has conspicuously failed to give [them. All but two or three of the | speeches which he has made on seri- |ous campaign issues so far have L.een decidedly vague and evasive.” And so forth, ending with a be- hest that the only thing to do is to vote for the Hoover electors. The foregoing epistle to the wav- ering was printed in the Waterbury paper last Saturday morning. On the | night in question Al made a speech |in Louisville—:nother one of those : “vague and «ciasive” ones, we imagine. Anyway, we get the impression, | putting two and two together, com- paring the aforesaid criticism and the laudations of the New York World, that the “boloney” is not all one-sided. In fact, if the voters really thrive on this brand of sau- sage they will know how to pull the cight levgrs, anyway you look at it. TAMING THE CROSSING What is now visible to the naked eye at the Main strect crossing is |that sundry hooks protrude above the creosoted planks which le be- | tween the trolley rails at their junc- ture with the railroad rails. These | hooks, we are informed, enable easy | liiceess to the inner or under work- ings of the rafls in case of trouble. thus avoiding the necessity of tear- ing up valuable street paving. Which is quite an idea. To auto- ists and truck drivers it makes no ditference as they glide over the planks. To the railroad and trolley company it makes quite a differ- ence if the troublesome inner or un- der parts of the rails can be reached with a minimum of expense and dif- ficulty. The new rails put in place at the crossing are deemed a great im- provement over the old rails in that they are not of the “T" variety. The latter, it will be remembered are |the kind that are plastered on the | highways all over New Rritain — at lcast, those streets where trolley rails are down. It the rails at | croszing are expected prevent |that part of the paving alongside the tracks from wearing down as quickly as was the c formerly then the same rule would apply to | other streets. Unfortunately, when the {rolley allowed to put down the n etreet to | se company wa rails throughout the city, no effort was made to compcl it to put down the improved type of rails for city These are in Hartford, sw Haven and many another city. use in NROOM ALONG THE HIGHWAYS The mosquito problem having leen more or less conquered dowr that hard-pressed 1o to look after [the mosquitoes along the highways | —at least, the big mosquitoes of which everyone complains.
